Tue, 12 Nov 2013 17:12:28 +0000mudshark5508349@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>seller pays the fees. IIRC years ago if you had enough balance paypal payments didn't occur fees which is maybe what notmyrealname is thinking of? Not sure what protection there was back then though.

<p>That's only for 'gift' or 'personal' payments which have no buyer protection.</p>
<p>The 'buying goods' options always incur fees.

<p>Whatever happens, don't pay by bank transfer or Paypal Gift!
